Community State Bank announces CFO succession plan

Union Grove, Wis.-based Community State Bank CFO Peter Schumacher will retire at the end of this year after a 43-year career in finance.

As part of a long-term succession plan, the bank is appointing Bob Findysz to CFO. The men will both serve as CFO until the end of the year. “I’m very honored and humbled to have worked in the financial industry for as long as I have,” said Schumacher, who has spent a decade at the bank. “While I’ll miss the individuals at Community State Bank, I’m excited to start spending more time with family. It’s been a great career and I’m confident in a seamless transition of senior leadership.” 

 A senior vice president, Findysz joined the bank in early June with more than 30 years of financial expertise, 14 of which in CFO and executive-based roles. Findysz said CSB’s “long history and commitment to the community are what drew me to their organization. But what really confirmed it for me were the people. You can clearly see their commitment to the bank, community and to their customers.”
